So this is a civilian Jade Empire craft for use by average working stiffs. Nothing particularly fancy or time-consuming to build.

4 small rockets propel it along its way, while two repulsors keep it afloat. A pretty simple craft held together by lots of SNOT. Utilized the pod shape from my first Jade ship and condensed it even further. I didnt have the pieces I needed in sand green to do what I wanted, and no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t get sand green dino tails to look good with regular green.

One fun feature of the craft is the door that opens upwards. Hope you like!

Right on. I was just thinking that I haven’t seen a pod gull wing door as of yet...well now I have! I really like this as it’s a nifty design that is relatively easy on parts, making it kit possible. How are the door arms hinged? Technic pins?

Good stuff, Ry ‘Jade’ Wood.

Cheers, -G
